OK, we have heard it all before, a new energy drink that promises something better for you that loads of sugar or poor quality ingredients but we have never heard of ikó drinks and we have certainly never heard of YERBA MATE before…
yerba mate energy drink
A natural ingredient that is filled with nutrients, antioxidants and helps lower blood sugar levels and reduces your risk of heart disease. It also helps improves your energy and focus thanks to it’s plant powered energy properties that provides the same hit as coffee, a similar taste to tea and the same euphoria of chocolate. We are sold!
Competition
Going up against the likes of Tenzing, Monster and Reign it’s definitely a long road ahead for IKÓ but they promote something super different and use an ingredient that none of these have touched so far. The energy drinks market just got a little bit more exciting thanks to IKÓ.
IKÓ
The UK brand that’s been created by a young entrepreneur (Ralph) who fell in love with Yerba and saw a gap in the marketing to squeeze into and hopefully takeover. The start-up brand that is currently receiving Seedrs funding currently offers 3 flavours:
- Original – Full caffeine and is a flat/lime iced tea taste (my favourite)
- Passion Fruit – Half the caffeine and sparkling.
- Lime & Agave – A half caffeine, sparkling version of the original.
We have tasted them all and sent crates out to almost a dozen influencers and the response has been nothing but amazing. Our influencers are not paid to talk positively about a brand and many a time have reported and posts negative sentiments about some brands or just flat our refuses to promote them. The buzz around IKÓ and the enjoyment of the drinks has been like no other. Tasty, refreshing, no down feeling afterwards and an instant pick me up feeling has been the overall feedback.
My personal experience of the original IKÓ full caffeine flavour has been super positive. I LOVE the taste and it’s the first thing I drink in the morning to replace my usual coffee fix. No bad stomach, no free fall feeling by noon and a super addictive taste. It’s a 10/10 product for me and one that we are proud to work with and look forward to seeing the future of.
